They advertised it as the first of their RasterScan Convert-a-Game series, designed so that it could be changed into another game in minutes "at a substantial savings." It is one of the first examples of a stealth game, and the first to use a "vision cone" mechanic, which allows players to see the precise field of view of their enemies. ''005'' is also credited for being the first game to introduce the concept of a " hub world" in games. Gameplay Largely inspired by ''James Bond'' (the title itself is a tribute or parody to the secret agent's codename 007), the player's mission is to take a briefcase of secret documents to a waiting helicopter. The player controls a spy who must avoid the enemies as he makes his way through buildings and warehouses, where he will have to dodge the enemies' flashlights and use boxes as hiding spots. Reception Upon release, ''005'' received a positive review from ''C ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

31st Fighter-Interceptor Squadron
31 (thirty-one) is the natural number following 30 and preceding 32. It is a prime number. Mathematics 31 is the 11th prime number. It is a superprime and a self prime (after 3, 5, and 7), as no integer added up to its base 10 digits results in 31. It is the third Mersenne prime of the form 2''n'' − 1, and the eighth Mersenne prime ''exponent'', in-turn yielding the maximum positive value for a 32-bit signed binary integer in computing: 2,147,483,647. After 3, it is the second Mersenne prime not to be a double Mersenne prime, while the 31st prime number ( 127) is the second double Mersenne prime, following 7. On the other hand, the thirty-first triangular number is the perfect number 496, of the form 2(5 − 1)(25 − 1) by the Euclid-Euler theorem. 31 is also a '' primorial prime'' like its twin prime ( 29), as well as both a lucky prime and a happy number like its dual permutable prime in decimal ( 13). 31 is the number of regular polygons with an odd number of ...
